Notes: You will enjoy your time in the duck capital of the world, Arkansas!! Although the eastern portion of the state claims the crown the west central part of the state has its own fair share of action. The Arkansas river valley offers a wide variety of habitat and birds to hunt and enjoy. The river provides a large flyway for ducks and giant Canada geese in the area. You can expect to get to hunt everything from large open bays, cypress breaks, cattail sloughs, pot holes, and flooded fields. One day of the hunt will be for just ducks the second day will depend on the best location of the birds.

 

We are in the heart of the resident Canada goose population here. Hunting opportunity for these birds is good in this area. Given that the season is open we will also pursue them as well. You will also have the choice to hunt a non traditional Arkansas hunt on a main river point going after big divers such as Canvasbacks, blue bills, buffleheads, and the occasional golden eye. I can assure you an enjoyable time, good laughs, and great dog work with my dog Ace as he will be with us all along the way no matter what we go after.

 

You will be expected to provide your own transportation to Russellville, Ar, lodging while on your stay, shells, license, and evening meals. Each morning of the hunts you will be picked up by myself and Ace and ride along with us to our hunting destination for the day and returned back after each hunt. If limits are not met that morning an afternoon hunt will be arranged if wanted. If you need help finding a hotel and other needs such as license, ammo etc when you arrive I can help you find them. 

 

Come and enjoy what we have to offer here in the Arkansas river valley. Ace and I will be waiting!!
